🪶 If you have never been to a powwow, consider attending one next year. You can see colorful dancing, hear drums and singing, peruse handcrafted items, and enjoy other entertainment.

📷 Here are some pics I took at the dancing competition at the Cherokee Intertribal Powwow last July in Cherokee, NC.

👉 You can find public powwows near you at powwows.com

💻 Can't make it to a powwow? At the same site, you can watch live streams and videos on demand. I recommend checking out any video with a Grand Entrance to see the pageantry. And anything with Tiny Tots will make you smile until your cheeks hurt.

📝 One more art bear from Cherokee, NC, but this one may need some explanation. It is fashioned after the iconic image of Sequoyah, who famously developed the "syllabary" that allowed the Cherokee language to be written. The bear also features some of the symbols used.

The name of the sculpture is "Sequoyah Syllabeary". 😆

💡 It's a remarkable story where a person who was not literate understood the importance of a written language and then figured out how to develop one.

And, something that does not get enough press, his syllabary allows kids to learn to read in a fraction of the time that English does.

Here is also a sculpture honoring Sequoyah outside of the Museum of the Cherokee People.

The #HonourableHarvest: Guiding Principles to Restoring Our Relationship to the #NaturalWorld

Apr 12, 2021

"We need acts of #restoration, not only for polluted waters and degraded lands, but also for our relationship to the world. We need to restore honor to the way we live, so that when we walk through the world we don’t have to avert our eyes with shame, so that we can hold our heads up high and receive the respectful acknowledgment of the rest of the earth’s beings."

by Robin Wall Kimmerer, Author, Environmental Educator, & Plant Ecologist

#GatherTheFilm - "Gather is an intimate portrait of the growing movement amongst #NativeAmericans to reclaim their spiritual, political and cultural identities through #FoodSovereignty, while battling the trauma of centuries of genocide.

"Gather follows #NephiCraig, a chef from the #WhiteMountainApacheNation (#Arizona), opening an #IndigenousCafé as a nutritional recovery clinic; Elsie Dubray, a young scientist from the #CheyenneRiverSiouxNation (#SouthDakota), conducting landmark studies on #bison; and the #AncestralGuard, a group of #EnvironmentalActivists from the #YurokNation (Northern #California), trying to save the #KlamathRiver.

Gather is coming to Netflix in the US on November 1, 2021! Gather is now available to stream on iTunes (US/UK/Canada), Amazon (US/UK) and Vimeo-on-Demand (rest of the world)."
